What gets us out of bed in the morning?
That indescribable feeling of creating spaces that are beautiful and inviting. But... beautiful and inviting spaces don't start with colourful cushions and beautiful bedlinen. Creating a sense of "home" starts with a whole lotta love for what we do and how we do it."
Phoebe Bell - Founder and Creative Director of Sage x Clare.
Our Ethos
We believe our best work flows from a commitment to doing things well and with pride.
We pursue excellence and recognise that excellence is journey of progress and continuous improvement. As we grow, how we work continues to evolve. This page is a little snapshot of some exciting improvements in the works.
Our Design Philosophy
We're all about that slow style movement.
We do our best to minimise waste by designing with intention. We want our products to withstand the test of time, physically and aesthetically. Here’s a little overview of how we achieve this:
Natural
We use premium natural fibres like cotton and linen. Not only do they feel amazing, but they also get even better with time.
Remnants and recycled materials
Where possible, we use remnant fabrics and fill made from recycled and upcycled materials. It's our little way of giving new life to items destined for landfill. Our pouch sets, scrunchies and baby change mats to name a few.
Timeless design
We focus on designs that you’ll love today, tomorrow and for years to come.
Our community
We couldn't do what we do without our wonderful community of design conscious people around us. We are so grateful for the belief others have shown in us. This belief and support is what has allowed us to flourish as people, a business and a brand. And so, it's only fitting that we pay this belief forward in supporting Womens and First Nations initiatives. Here's how:
Partnerships
We partner with Fitted for Work, volunteering time and donating products for their Conscious Closet store. Fitted for Work a wonderful organisation with a mission to help women, non-binary and gender-diverse jobseekers prepare for new job opportunities and thrive through various programs including mentoring, training and everything they need to and lean in with confidence.
Gifting
We support the incredible work of organisations like Geelong Mums, Bunjilwarra Residential Rehabilitation, Cancer Council, Eastern Health, Northwestern Mental Health and Mission Australia with bedding, blankets, baby essentials, clothing and more.
Fundraising
We've raised money for charities like Refuge Victoria, Oxfam Trailwalker, Bushfire Relief, the Heart Foundation and Pink Stumps Day.
